FANTASTIC & SIMPLE!

I was really struggling to find a good way to use PGP integration on the Apple side since I was used to Kleopatra and Windows. Love love love this app and its ease of use + pain staking hours trying to use other Apple compatible ways of encryption.

My only constructive feedback that would be fairly easy to implement:

1. Please make an app for MacOS integration. This would be one of a kind and would fill a large void for an easy and effective solution for Mac users.

2. Please add some sort of locked note feature / function.

I store my encrypted notes, paraphrases, etc. on other 3rd party apps, but this would be nice to have them all under one secure area where I can encrypt and store everything. Thanks!

Pretty good for a free app

It’s not perfect but it does let me create and add keys plus encrypt and decrypt PGP messages.

PGPro

It works great but for some reason my PGPro app got deleted and so I lost my private key that means I lost my crypto that is on a marketplace :( is there anyway I can retrieve my private key ?

confusing but good

need to have familiarity with the concept of pretty good privacy before diving in. easier apps but less secure than this.

Great App

Good app, well made has good functionality. Does not collect data which is always a plus. Keep up the good work.

Solid pgp option

Does all the pgp stuff I need- more useful than the ones that charge $10 too

Works Great! Across Multiple Apps!

It took me a few minutes to figure out how to import public keys and a few of my password protected private keys. But then it just worked.

It lets me even rename the keys with more info for those friends whose public key addresses have truly cryptic email addresses.

When sending messages it lets me choose between all my apps, I’m guessing it’s an integrated and permissioned clip board that copies and pastes the encrypted text to the messaging app you choose. Gmail, Messenger, and even Notes etc it’s all there an it all works and it is actually intuitive once you do one or two messages. Thank you for this it’s great!

Elegant app

Overall this a quiet elegant app, much smoother than Kleopatra imo. I do want to raise an issue, I notice that for keys without email, a “<>” is shown to the right of the key name, I hope the dev can remove this blank “<>”. Beside that, applauding for the Dev(s). Thanks for making this app.

Doesn’t work (decrypting)

I cannot get this app to decrypt a message at all. Not even one that’s been sent from this app. clearly broken but if this was fixed and reliable it could be really handy.

please update

10/10, 5 stars, A+++ until development just ceased. Now it seems the search function no longer works anymore for searching key database… so it’s not possible to import someone’s public key… if it is, I’d have to move in and out of the app, open other apps, email myself things—so then what’s even the point of having the app? I was using this app to avoid having to use a real email + having my data floating on xyz mail server + having to email back and forth to decrypt/encrypt.

Please, friend, please update. I hate that, years later, there is still only this one PGP app in the entirety of the App Store. It’s too much responsibility for one person but clearly you’re the only one smart enough to make such an app!

I would pay to use this app (well, if search still worked). I’m grateful for all the time I did get to use it, though. Thank you for building it!

Free and awesome to learn with

Great to learn how to use the protocol

Not always intuitive but very effective

I use GPG Suite for Mac on my Apple computer. Aside from occasional bugs in its Apple Mail plug-in, it’s simple interface has spoiled me a little. PGPro is somewhat less intuitive, but it’s streamlined, straightforward, and works just as advertised. It is a Must Have for encryption enthusiasts.

Best I used so far

Great user experience. Encrypting messages is becoming more easy with this app

Quick handy tool

Does not store anything on any servers. Doesn’t care about your anything. Just does what it’s meant to — encrypt/decrypt locally on the device.

Love it, use daily.

Love it. Great job.

Great app.

This app needs updates...

It doesn't support encrypt/decrypt files, it doesn't support auto detect the private key to decrypt. Also, this app's repo on github has been discontinued for 2 years :(
(However there isn't many GnuPG implements on iOS, that's why this app is so important)

Making PGP Easier

Excellent so far, far easier to use and manage than it used to be. Thanks for the great work here!

It works!

I have been playing around with it and it works as an encryption tool. I haven’t tested importing key pairs but other than that it works. Some of the GUI glitches out a bit and it might be a bit un intuitive to use but it does work and hey, it’s free and also, who doesn’t love privacy on IOS. That’s hard to get

Free and good

Free and good It works for pgp messages

Worth at least every penny

I don’t have the technical savvy to judge the quality of encryption but it’s certainly free and easy to use
